Description Michael Schneider CLA 2010-05-15 08:08:29 EDT 
The Java debugger shows variable values when hovering over it in the code. This would be very useful. 

Additionally, the Java debugger's support for ctrl-shift-D in the editor to evaluate the selected text is also very helpful.

The attached patch provides variable hovers (for those that can be resolved). 

This fix will not work until bug 328850 is committed.

For reference, evaluations for selected text was added in bug 289118.
